 * Why didn’t you just install WP in the root of your domain?

 * To make WordPress available at [http://d-panabaker.org](http://d-panabaker.org)
   just change in Settings->General, the Blog address (URL) to [http://d-panabaker.org](http://d-panabaker.org)
   and put this index.php file in your web-root folder (it is the same folder that
   contains the blog folder)
 *     ```
       <?php
       /* Short and sweet */
       define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);
       require('./wordpress/wp-blog-header.php');
       ?>
       ```
   
 * Note: leave the WordPress Address (URL) in Settings->General at [http://d-panabaker.org/wordpress](http://d-panabaker.org/wordpress)
